This is the reason why England’s attack line is less fierce

DBasia.news – England’s national team appeared disappointing in the UEFA Nations League. The Three Lions front line was considered to be too dependent on Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling.

England who appeared in League A must join Germany, Italy and Hungary in group 3. This is a tough group.

Surprisingly, England have not been able to win from the three matches that have been played. Gareth Southgate’s side lost at home to Hungary and drew twice against Germany and Italy.

England’s two points has made them stranded at the bottom of the standings. They are threatened with relegation to League B if they are unable to improve their performance.

Of the three games, England was only able to score one goal. While the three competitors have recorded three goals.

Understandably, England’s front row has received more attention. Southgate admits his team still relies heavily on the sharpness of Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling.

“We depended a lot on Harry (Kane) and Raheem (Sterling) to score goals and that is very concerning. Having the ball doesn’t guarantee you win games and doesn’t guarantee you’ll score goals,” Southgate said after the game.

We have some great strikers but we have to spread the load. Some of them have been able to do so with their clubs but haven’t reached international level.”

In the match against Italy, Southgate has tried to reduce his team’s dependence on Kane. This is shown by the appearance of Tammy Abraham as a starter.

In addition to rotation, Southgate certainly thinks Abraham has more experience when dealing with Italian players. That’s because he is now appearing in Serie A with AS Roma.

But Abraham failed to take advantage of this opportunity to the fullest. Southgate was forced to pull him off in the 65th minute to make room for Kane.

“We need to look at different players. We know behind the physically tough game in Germany that it’s important to freshen things up,” he added.

The performance presented in the UEFA Nations League must be immediately corrected by England and Southgate. This could affect their performance when competing in the 2022 World Cup finals.
